What in the hell is going on right now?

Right now the main thing you need to think about is protecting yourself, your family and your loved ones.

I have been stocking up on food and water for the past month, in case the Supply Chain for Food Distribution is disrupted. Have a bug out bag ready in case you need to leave your home.
I already have a few spots in the foothills I can camp at if Major City centers prove to be unsafe.
Putting together a home made first aid kit isn't a bad idea either.

Alpine Fisher is basically like Trump's Twitter account, it seems like there's two separate users who use the account (for Trump's account it's him when it's Android, someone else when it's iPhone).

Lol there's an article Trump stays on message, and the message is about Clinton, the article itself doesn't matter, some pretty funny twitter responses though...

"A responsible story would cite the blizzard of lies he told in the speech, but I guess we're bored of those now"

'We're at the point where claiming w/o evidence that your opponent will be indicted is "on message."'

"In stump speeches, Trump lies, gets basic facts wrong, is irritated and petulant.

Media headline: Trump Stays on Message."

I think I am going to turn off the news and stay away from the internet until election day.
The anxiety is killing me. Watching Flames games has been my only real retreat, and they have been rather dissapointing.

I think that's something we can all get behind.

Watching the Flames right now is almost as bad as the election. Don't even get me started on our special teams. Ugh..

Oh I had fun yesterday. Senator Clay Davis knows all about it. I told him what I was doing in a PM.

I am going to miss all you guys when I take a haitus from this thread.

FBI Director James Comey was driven in part by a fear of leaks from within his agency when he decided to tell Congress the FBI was investigating newly discovered emails related to Hillary Clinton, law enforcement sources said on Thursday.

The examination of the email traffic is now being carried out under the tightest secrecy by a team at Federal Bureau of Investigations headquarters in Washington, the sources said, requesting anonymity because of the inquiry's sensitivity.

Several sources said it was unclear whether the FBI would make any further public disclosures about its latest review before Tuesday's presidential and congressional elections. Two sources said such disclosures were unlikely.

..

Two law enforcement sources familiar with the FBI's New York Field Office, which initially discovered the emails, said a faction of investigators based in the office is known to be hostile to Hillary Clinton. A spokeswoman for the FBI's New York office said she had no knowledge about this.

Democratic Party sources said such a faction was likely responsible for a recent surge in media leaks on alleged details of an ongoing FBI investigation of the Clinton Foundation.

Wow, you waited this long to finish off your zombie kit? Thoughts and prayers, hopefully you get everything together in time!

No he's not. He's a troll looking for attention.

Kind of funny, reporter with Trump's travelling press tweets:

"Trump just took the stage and the traveling press is on another bus by even at the venue yet. Sigh." (I assume she means not)

"Good time to remind everybody: Trump hasn't held a presser since July 27th and took questions from a limited group on September 5th."

Trump supporters of course start talking about Clinton not talking to the press, apparently they live in a parallel universe where Trump talks to more than his Hannity/Fox safe space and travels with his press and Clinton doesn't travel with hers.

"Clinton has taken questions 12 times in the last 2 months approximately. Trump: 0 (9/5 was last time.)"

"Trump does not fly with the traveling press."
